Pets of the week

Lots of dogs and cats are waiting to be adopted at the Yolo County Animal Shelter, 2640 E. Gibson Road in Woodland. Among them is Hugo (No. 82321), a 16-month-old neutered male border collie mix, who is described as “very gentle.” Hugo pulls sometimes, but leashes easily, a shelter spokeswoman says. Also hoping for a good home is Smoky (No. 96448), a female domestic short-haired cat. Fees are charged for licensing and spaying or neutering, if necessary. The shelter is open from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Tuesdays through Fridays and 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturdays (closed for lunch from 1 to 2 p.m. each day).
